my bantam cochins are 4months old now and they are only about the size of my mother's tea pot. my rooster is a little bigger than the hens...taller but skinnier...we just got done showing at a local AG fair and comparing them to the standard cochin they put right smack dab in the middle of my babies (dumb) these bantams were only about the size of the standards tail bump, and one of the standards toes was as big as a whole leg on my bantam girls...
